Spectral features and antibacterial properties of Cu-doped ZnO nanoparticles prepared by sol-gel method 下载免费PDF全文
Zn_(1-x)Cu_x O(x=0.00, 0.01, 0.03, and 0.05) nanoparticles are synthesized via the sol-gel technique using gelatin and nitrate precursors. The impact of copper concentration on the structural, optical, and antibacterial properties of these nanoparticles is demonstrated. Powder x-ray diffraction investigations have illustrated the organized Cu doping into ZnO nanoparticles up to Cu concentration of 5%(x = 0.05). However, the peak corresponding to CuO for x= 0.01 is not distinguishable. The images of field emission scanning electron microscopy demonstrate the existence of a nearly spherical shape with a size in the range of 30–52 nm. Doping Cu creates the Cu–O–Zn on the surface and results in a decrease in the crystallite size. Photoluminescence and absorption spectra display that doping Cu causes an increment in the energy band gap. The antibacterial activities of the nanoparticles are examined against Escherichia coli(Gram negative bacteria)cultures using optical density at 600 nm and a comparison of the size of inhibition zone diameter. It is found that both pure and doped ZnO nanoparticles indicate appropriate antibacterial activity which rises with Cu doping. 相似文献

Combination of natural biodegradable polymer with a synthetic polymer offers excellent properties for the support in drug delivery system. For this purpose, biodegradable conductive nanoparticle polypyrrole based on chitosan (PPC) has been prepared via oxidative polymerization of pyrrole in presence of chitosan using FeCl3 as oxidant in acidic medium and used as a carrier for 1,2,4‐triazoles. The resultant nanoparticles were characterized by X‐ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared analysis, transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and thermal gravimetric analysis. The results indicate that spherical nanoparticle of average diameter 52 ± 8 nm was successfully prepared. The spherical particles were composed of dark sphere surrounded by grey shell. A circumferential dark ring is observed in the shell after loading 1,2,4‐triazoles into PPC nanoparticles. The loaded triazoles were released almost linearly against time in a sustained fashion into different pH media. The mechanism of triazoles release was determined using different kinetics equations. The antibacterial activities against the gram‐negative and gram‐positive bacteria were examined. Furthermore, the antitumor activity of PPC nanoparticles loaded 1,2,4‐triazoles was also examined against Ehrlich ascites carcinoma cells and breast cancer cell line (MCF7). Polypyrrole chitosan loaded nanoparticles exhibited higher antitumor activity than 1,2,4‐triazoles. 相似文献

Large-scale one-dimensional magnesium oxide (MgO) nanowires with diameters of 6 nm and lengths of 10 μm have been successfully synthesized by a new facile and simple reaction. This production was performed via a microwave hydrothermal approach at low temperature growth of 180 °C for 30 min. The structure of as synthesized MgO nanowires were investigated by means of X-ray diffraction (X-ray), Fourier Transformation Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FE-SEM), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), Selected Area Electron Diffraction (SAED) and Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDS). The antibacterial behavior of MgO nanowires concentration in solid media against Gram negative and Gram positive for different bacteria has been tested in details. The results show that the MgO nanowires have bacteriostatic activity against Escherichia coli and Bacillus sp. The antibacterial activity increases with increasing MgO nanowires concentration. Furthermore, the presence of one-dimensional MgO nanowires has high antibacterial efficacy and damages the membrane wall of bacteria. Finally, this study offered the prospect of developing ultrafine nanoscale devices utilizing MgO nanowires and implementing their useful potential in biological control. 相似文献

This study gives an original methodology to synthetize novel metallo‐drugs nanoparticles relevant for medicinal chemistry. Gold (HAuCl4) are complexes with antitumor compounds (paclitaxel (PTX); docetaxel (DTX)) and dicarboxylic acid‐terminated polyethylene‐glycol (PEG) that plays a role of surfactants. The proposed synthesis is fast and leads to hybrid‐metal nanoparticles (AuNPs) in which drug solubility is improved. The interactions between drugs (DTX, PTX), PEG diacid (PEG), and Au (III) ions to form hybrid nanocarriers called DTX IN PEG‐AuNPs and PTX IN PEG‐AuNPs, are characterized by various analytical techniques (Raman and UV–vis spectroscopies) and transmission electron microscopy. The efficient drugs release under pH conditions is also achieved and characterized showing an amazing reversible equilibrium between Au (III)‐complex‐drug and Au0NPs. For therapeutic purposes, such AuNPs are then decorated with the anti‐EGFR polyclonal antibodies, which specifically recognizes the hERG1 channel aberrantly expressed on the membrane of human lung cancer cells. This paper, through an original chemical approach, will occupy an important position in the field of nanomedicine, and hope that novel perspectives will be proposed for the development of high drug‐loading nanomedicines. 相似文献

The antibacterial behaviour of suspensions of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO nanofluids) against E. Coli has been investigated. ZnO nanoparticles from two sources are used to formulate nanofluids. The effects of particle size,
concentration and the use of dispersants on the antibacterial behaviour are examined. The results show that the ZnO nanofluids
have bacteriostatic activity against E. coli. The antibacterial activity increases with increasing nanoparticle concentration and increases with decreasing particle size.
Particle concentration is observed to be more important than particle size under the conditions of this work. The results
also show that the use of two types of dispersants (Polyethylene Glycol (PEG) and Polyvinylpyrolidone (PVP)) does not affect
much the antibacterial activity of ZnO nanofluids but enhances the stability of the suspensions. SEM analyses of the bacteria
before and after treatment with ZnO nanofluids show that the presence of ZnO nanoparticles damages the membrane wall of the
bacteria. Electrochemical measurements using a model DOPC monolayer suggest some direct interaction between ZnO nanoparticles
and the bacteria membrane at high ZnO concentrations.

Silver nanoparticles (NPs) encapsulated in amorphous silica shells are synthesized and evaluated for their antibacterial action using the Gram‐negative Escherichia coli bacterium. These inorganic capsules are synthesized using a new approach that comprises the use of oil‐in‐water‐in‐oil (O/W/O) multiple emulsions to fabricate SiO2 capsules incorporating organically capped Ag NPs. This strategy is explored as a mean to promote the bioadhesion of the microorganisms to the silica rough surfaces while still keeping the system with a high surface area for the active metal. The results have shown that the hybrid capsules enable a slow release of cationic silver from the interior of the silica microsphere to the external medium probably through the pore channels in the shell. The antibacterial activity against E. coli is mainly determined by the Ag+ ion release rate, suggesting that these particulates can be employed as a robust system for prolonged used as an antimicrobial material. 相似文献

In this report, gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) labeled by Raman reporters (AuNPs‐R6G) were assembled on glass and used as the seeds to in situ grow silver‐coated nanostructures based on silver enhancer solution, forming the nanostructures of AuNPs‐R6G@Ag, which were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and UV‐visible spectroscopy. More importantly, the obtained silver‐coated nanostructures can be used as a surface enhancement Raman scattering (SERS) substrate. The different SERS activities can be controlled by the silver deposition time and assembly time of AuNPs‐R6G on glass. The results indicate that the maximum SERS activity could be obtained on AuNPs‐R6G when these nanostructures were assembled on glass for 2 h with silver deposition for 2 min. In addition, the reproducibility of SERS signal on the fabricated nanostructures is very high with the intensity error lower than 15%, which has great promise as a probe for application in bioanalysis.

This study deals with preparation and evaluation of properties of chitosan/zinc oxide bionanocomposites (CT/ZnO BNCs) with different amounts of modified zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) through ultrasonic irradiation technique. Due to the high surface energy and tendency for agglomeration, the surface ZnO NPs was modified by a coupling agent as 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APS) to form APS–ZnO nanoparticles. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy confirmed that APS was successfully grafted onto the ZnO nanoparticles surface. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) revealed a surface coverage of the coupling molecule of 2.6 wt%. The resulting bionanocomposites were characterized by FTIR spectra, X-ray diffraction patterns, and TGA. The antibacterial activity of bionanocomposite films was tested against gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus subtilis) and gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa). The results of CT/ZnO BNCs revealed that the thermal and antibacterial properties obviously improved the presence of ZnO NPs in comparison with the pure CT and that this increase is higher when the NP content increases. Further, it was observed that antibacterial activity of the resulting hybrid biofilms showed somewhat higher for gram-positive bacteria compared to gram-negative bacteria. 相似文献

Combinatory anticancer drug release from gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) in K562 human myeloid leukemia cells was performed using Raman spectroscopy. We fabricated the anticancer drug of imatinib as a BCR‐ABL tyrosine kinase inhibitor on AuNP surfaces along with a transferrin (Tf)‐targeting moiety to treat the leukemia cells. DNA topoisomerase I inhibitor topotecan was also assembled to monitor its fluorescence onto AuNPs. The linker group of 4‐carboxylic benzoic acid was used to conjugate to targeting the Tf protein. Our Raman data indicated that the drug molecules were not detached in the cell culture media but released after treatment with glutathione (2 mM). Intracellular distribution and release of the anticancer drug–AuNP conjugates in K562 cells were examined by both fluorescence microscopy and dark‐field microscopy with surface‐enhanced Raman scattering.

Efficient and Rapid Synthesis of Radioactive Gold Nanoparticles by Dielectric Barrier Discharge 下载免费PDF全文

A compact bench‐top system based on a dielectric barrier plasma discharge (DBD), enables the rapid, automatable, and continuous‐flow synthesis of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and radioactive gold nanoparticles (198AuNPs). AuNPs are used as radiosensitizers in oncology, and 198AuNPs (half‐life: 2.7 d) have been suggested as potential cancer brachytherapy sources. Plasma applied at the surface of a liquid containing gold ions (AuCl4?) and dextran induces the production of AuNPs directly in water. This synthesis is monitored in real time by UV–visible spectrometry: the change of absorbance of the solution provides new insights on the growth dynamics of AuNPs by plasma synthesis. By balancing gold ions and surfactant molecules, particles with a diameter lying in the optimal range for radiosensitizing applications (28 ± 9 nm) are produced. The method yields a reduction of more than 99% of the gold ions within only 30 min of plasma treatment. A postsynthesis ripening of the AuNPs is revealed, monitored by UV–visible spectrometry, and quantified within the first few hours following plasma treatment. Radioactive 198AuNPs are also produced by DBD synthesis and characterized by electron microscopy and single‐photon emission computed tomography imaging. The results confirm the efficiency of DBD reactors for AuNPs synthesis in oncology applications. 相似文献

Diverse nanoparticles have been widely applied in different fields, including industries and biomedical sciences. Recent developments in nanotechnology have broadened the potential applications of nanotechnology in clinical diagnosis and medical therapy of malignant and non-malignant diseases. Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have been reported to possess unique physico-chemical properties; they have been investigated in studies on tumor growth and metastasis. Here, we explored the possible pharmacological functions of AuNPs on the mouse melanoma cell line, B16F10. We demonstrated that AuNPs of sizes 1–3, 3–5, and 10–15 nm exerted dose-dependent cytotoxic effects after 72-h treatments. AuNPs (4 and 10 ppm) of 1–3 and 3–5 nm were more cytotoxic than those of 10–15 nm. However, AuNPs of 1–3 nm were more cytotoxic against benign HaCaT keratinocytes than those of 3–5 nm. Thus, 4 ppm of AuNPs of 3–5 nm was considered relatively safe and an ideal candidate for this study. Further investigations revealed that AuNPs could induce sub-G1 phase accumulation, cleavage of caspase-3 and poly-(ADP-ribose) polymerase, and activation of JNK/p38. The expression of pro-apoptotic protein, Bax, was also induced. Furthermore, platelet-derived growth factor BB-induced migration and motility of melanoma cells were reduced after pretreatment with AuNPs of 3–5 nm. Adhesion assay showed that AuNPs of 3–5 nm could significantly suppress the adhesion of melanoma cells to collagen. In summary, AuNPs of 3–5 nm might be potential anti-tumor agents, as they were selectively cytotoxic against and inhibited motility of melanoma cells. 相似文献

Since violacein—an antibiotic, antiviral, and antiparasitic compound—exhibits poor solubility in water, polymeric poly-(d,l-lactide-co-glycolide) nanoparticles containing this compound improved its solubility and biological activity. The nanoparticles
were prepared by the nanoprecipitation method and characterized in terms of average diameter, zeta potential, drug loading,
polymer recovery, in vitro release kinetic, and in vitro antibacterial activity. Nanoparticles with diameters between 116
and 139 nm and negative-charged outer surfaces were obtained. Drug-loading efficiency and polymer recovery were 87 and 93%,
respectively. In vitro release kinetics assays showed that violacein loaded in these nanoparticles has sustained release behavior
until 5 days. Both free and nanoparticles-loaded violacein exhibited in vitro antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213 and ATCC 25923 strains and exhibiting around two to five times lower minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) than
free violacein, respectively. The encapsulated violacein was efficient against methicilin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains. No significant activity against Escherichia coli and Salmonella enterica was found. 相似文献

As several multi-target drug delivery approaches are successfully identified through preclinical screening, their clinical success is often hampered by challenges such as poor circulation stability, dissimilarities in the pharmacokinetics of different drugs, as well as targeting inefficiency. Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are adopted as promising nanocarriers in the co-delivery of multiple therapeutic drugs for combination therapy. The pH-responsive AuNPs are synthesized and incorporated with multiple chemotherapeutic drugs, such as doxorubicin and bleomycin. Such structures can work as drug carriers to treat cervical carcinoma by adopting a quality by design approach. The designed nanocarrier is characterized by adopting a range of physicochemical and morphological techniques. In vitro drug release and cytotoxicity of optimized nanocarriers are assessed to cervical tumor epithelial cells. The results highlight the notable advantages of colloidal AuNPs, including sustained drug release, therapeutic agent delivery with high stability, and biocompatibility for more effective treatment of cervical carcinoma. Furthermore, by improving the biodistribution and/or bioavailability profiles, it is believed that the two-in-one approach may therefore give evidence on the fate of co-loaded nanocarrier as a promising trajectory for successful clinical translation against ovarian carcinoma to achieve maximum therapeutic synergy for an individual patient. 相似文献

Although photodynamic therapy is an efficient therapeutic strategy for cancer treatment, it always suffers from the low singlet oxygen (1O2) yields owing to the weak absorption in optical transparent window of biological tissues. Herein, the black phosphorus (BP) nanosheet is integrated with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) to simultaneously enhance the singlet oxygen generation and hyperthermia by localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) in cancer therapy. In the design, BP nanosheet employed as two‐dimension (2D) inorganic photosensitizer is hybridized with AuNPs through polyetherimide (PEI) as bridge to form BP‐PEI/AuNPs hybrid nanosheet. Such hybridation not only significantly increases the 1O2 production of BP nanosheet through maximizing the local field enhancement of AuNPs, but also significantly enhances the light absorption of BP nanosheet to promote photothermal effect by LSPR. Accordingly, about 3.9‐fold enhancement of 1O2 production and 1.7‐fold increasement of photothermal conversion efficiency are achieved compared with BP‐PEI alone upon single 670 nm laser irradiation. As a proof‐of‐concept model, BP‐PEI/AuNPs hybrid nanosheet with simultaneous dual‐modal phototherapy functions result in effective suppression of tumor growth with minimized side effects both in vitro and in vivo, indicating the great potential of the BP‐PEI/AuNPs hybrid nanosheet as an effective strategy to enhance the cancer therapy efficiency. 相似文献

Combinatorial drug therapies emerge among the most promising strategies to treat complex pathologies such as cancer and severe infections. Biocompatible nanoparticles of mesoporous iron carboxylate metal–organic framework (nanoMOFs) are used here to address the challenging aspects related to the coincorporation of two antibiotics. Amoxicillin and potassium clavulanate, a typical example of drugs used in tandem, are efficiently coincorporated with payloads up to 36 wt%. Due to the occurrence of two distinct pore sizes/apertures within the MOF architecture, each drug is able to infiltrate the porous framework and localize within separate compartments. Molecular simulations predict drug loadings and locations consistent with experimental findings. Drug loaded nanoMOFs that are internalized by Staphylococcus aureus infected macrophages are able to colocalize with the pathogen, which in turn leads to an alleviation of bacterial infection. The data also reveal potential antibacterial properties of nanoMOFs alone as well as their ability to deliver a high payload of drugs to fight intracellular bacteria. These results pave the way toward the design of engineered “all‐in‐one” nanocarriers in which both the loaded drugs and their carrier play a role in fighting intracellular infections. 相似文献

The development of rapid, highly sensitive detection methods for α‐fetoprotein (AFP) is very important. As hepatocellular carcinoma is closely related to the level of AFP in the blood, it is necessary to maintain an AFP concentration below the safety limit. In this paper, we propose a universal, rapid, sensitive, and highly specific immunoassay system utilizing gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). This new system features a sandwich structure combining mercaptobenzoic acid‐labeled immunogold nanoparticles with the antigen and the antibody atop a pre‐designed substrate made of a glass slide modified with AuNPs. This SERS‐based immunoassay can detect AFP concentrations as low as 100 pg/ml, which is a significant improvement on the capabilities of the enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay method. A good linear relationship between the SERS peak intensity and the logarithm of antigen concentrations (from 1 ng/ml to 100 ng/ml) was observed. This technique provides an effective model for the detection of biomarkers in medical diagnostics, criminal investigation, and other fields. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

Inorganic antibacterial agents such as metal nanoparticles (NPs) are very important in biomedical and pharmaceutical areas. There are many methods of synthesizing these NPs, but all of them have their own disadvantages. In this study, ultrasonic‐assisted spark discharge is employed to produce colloidal silver (Ag) and zinc oxide (ZnO) NPs which are stable without using any stabilizers or surfactants. Different tests such as X‐ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, and ultraviolet–visible absorption spectroscopy are used for the characterization of the quantity and quality of these NPs, and their antibacterial activity is evaluated by the disk diffusion method and determination of the minimum inhibitory concentrations against Escherichia coli . The results show that the overall antibacterial activity of Ag NPs is higher than that of ZnO NPs. 相似文献

Diamond nanoparticles (NDs) have demonstrated great promise as useful materials in a variety of biomedical settings. In this paper, the antimicrobial and antibiofilm activities of variously functionalized NDs against two common bacterial targets Gram‐negative bacterium Escherichia coli and Gram‐positive bacterium Staphylococcus aureus are compared. Hydroxylated (ND‐OH), aminated (ND‐NH2), carboxylated (ND‐COOH), mannose (ND‐Mannose), tri‐thiomannoside (ND‐Man3), or tri‐thiolactoside (ND‐Lac3)‐modified NDs are fabricated and evaluated in the present work. Of these, the mannose‐modified NDs are found to interfere most strongly with the survival of S. aureus, but not to influence the growth of E. coli. In contrast, particles featuring lactosyl units have the opposite effect on S. aureus growth. Sugar‐functionalized NPs reported to display antibacterial effects are rare. Only ND‐COOH particles are seen to have any effect on the growth profile of E. coli, but the effects are moderate. On the other hand, both ND‐NH2 and ND‐COOH are found to inhibit E. coli‐induced biofilm formation at levels comparable to the known E. coli biofilm disruptor, ampicillin (albeit at concentrations of 100 μg mL?1). However, none of the modified particles examined here reveal any significant activity as disruptors of S. aureus‐induced biofilm formation even at the highest concentrations studied. 相似文献

In this article, we describe a simple one-pot rapid synthesis route to produce uniform silver nanoparticles by thermal reduction
of AgNO3 using oleylamine as reducing and capping agent. To enhance the dispersal ability of as-synthesized hydrophobic silver nanoparticles
in water, while maintaining their unique properties, a facile phase transfer mechanism has been developed using biocompatible
block co-polymer pluronic F-127. Formation of silver nanoparticles is confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron
microscopy (TEM) and UV–vis spectroscopy. Hydrodynamic size and its distribution are obtained from dynamic light scattering
(DLS). Hydrodynamic size and size distribution of as-synthesized and phase transferred silver nanoparticles are 8.2 ± 1.5 nm
(σ = 18.3%) and 31.1 ± 4.5 nm (σ = 14.5%), respectively. Antimicrobial activities of hydrophilic silver nanoparticles is tested
against two Gram positive (Bacillus megaterium and Staphylococcus aureus), and three Gram negative (Escherichia
coli, Proteus
vulgaris and Shigella
sonnei) bacteria. Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values obtained in the present study for the tested microorganisms are
found much better than those reported for commercially available antibacterial agents. 相似文献
